DO YOU ASSUME TOO MUCH?
DO YOU ASSUME TOO MUCH?
As a commissioned one of the worst things you can possibly do is
ASS-U-ME yes -break the word apart and of course you already know what it spells out right.
BUT HERE ARE SOME THINGS WE ASS-U-ME
- We do a good job and the agent will use us again.
- We do a good job and the buyer will refer us
- We do a good job and the listing agent will have coffee with us
- Our processor will order everything on time.
- The buyer we spent an hour with prequalifying and explaining programs to will use us and not shop
- The buyer we issued a pre-approval letter to will come back when the contract is accepted to make loan application
- Everyone will open our e-mail newsletters
- The agent you just visited at an open house or had coffee with liked you and will send you their next deal
- Some newer originators may even assume that these low rates will stay around forever and refi’s will always be plentiful.
I can go on and on here with all of the assumptions we make but the point is that you should actually take out a sheet of paper and a pen and list of all of these assumptions.
Then you need to have a plan in place for each and everyone of these assumptions. If you don’t then you truly just hoping and assuming instead of ensuring your success!
